* We’re looking forward to another season of Top Chef: Just Desserts and are thrilled that Le Bernardin Executive Pastry Chef Michael Laiskonis will be watching with us once again. If you have any questions for Michael about what transpired on last season or what we should look forward to this season, share them in the comments below or on Twitter.

* Finally, do you know what’s not on my plate this week (or last)? Carbs. I gave them up. It’s actually going miserably great. I’m starving not hungry at all. P.S.: Can someone please send me a cupcake?
